A work of art devoted to all things challah

A work of art devoted to all things challah
Gorgeous photographs, detailed instructions, step-by-step photographs --- truly inspirational. I received it today and had to make challah. Love the instructions for various loaf sizes - qualities - triple, double, single. I made a double patch of the classic challah and made a braided cinnamon loaf and the cinnamon rolls. The rolls are to die for. Incredible texture and flavor. Bread will be sliced tomorrow. This book will guide the novice through all things challah. It was 10 pm at night when I was braiding the bread - so not so bad for someone who was exhausted. I am so glad I bought this book for my collection. As the Dir of Publicity for Eat Your Books, I review a load of books - this one I bought - and this one I used the day I received it! That says it all.

    This cookbook is not only a cookbook. It’s truley a work of art. You can see Rochie really put her whole heart and soul into this book. There is so much she’s teaches and shares about nurturing life which in turn is expressed by the intentions in baking challah. As well she’s has so many different types of challah, with different types of flours and sourdough. She also teaches you how to make it special by add many different fillings. And then teaches you how to shapes it in so many different and beautiful designs. The photography is so artistic and by each challah there’s a not of which page to turn to in order to learn how to braid it in that shape. She though of every detail from the cover to cover. There’s even a bookmark so you can save that special recipe or keep your place where you were reading. And then of course she’s teaches you the Halacha behind everything. Trial ya work of art and lifetime of learning. It’s really a beautiful book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars WOW!! Anyone who bakes challah or who might want to try, MUST buy this!!! AMAZING!
    Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2017

    This is a visually delicious book.....full of artistic photos, instructional photos and diagrams, and amazing recipes, both for the challah (Sabbath bread) and the soul. The recipes are presented in an organized and easy-to-follow manner, and the interspersed "shmoozing" from the author, Rochie, really makes you feel as if you're baking along with her in her kitchen. I've led several dozen small scale challah baking events (I am honored to have worked with the author at one of hers) and have featured her first book," The Rising Live: Challah Baking, Elevated" as both an instructional and inspirational "must own" for any challah baker, from the beginner to the "Bubby." That book explains the "soul" of challah baking, and this one is the soul infused into the body of challah....yummy!! this one will certainly be featured at my next baking event. I've got her sourdough section marked and ready to go for this Shabbos! And now we must invite many more guests since I want to try ALL her recipes (but we can't afford to eat that much on our own!) Buy this for yourself, and for gifts, too....a bas mitzvah girl, a bride, a new neighbor, an old neighbor, even a daughter-in-law or mother-in-law ;0)

    I must say that it's the kind of book that I can glance at when I need a lift.There are so many attractive things,. The pictures, the stories, the deep and light facts about challah and the various cultural approaches to challah baking. Thank you for this very simchadike and inspiring book. I keep it where all can see it and pick it up as a fun book to go through whenever I have a chance.
    What I don't like about it is that it's too big to carry around with me whenever I'm not at home. It would be fun to keep in my purse but then it would lose it's charm.

    Beautifully crafted, the illustrations are works of art and the detailed explanations are clear and easy to follow. The book will turn you into a perfect challah baker. It will also transform your life because each description of ingredients, utensils, and preparation raises one’s understanding of our own purpose in life, and of our interconnectedness with self, others, and our Creator.
    Like the Rebbetzin, and baker, that she is Rochie Pinson provides recipes for challah as well as recipes for a life well-lived.
    Buy it for the artwork. Buy it for the recipes. Above all, buy it for the inspirational teachings.

    Five stars is not enough !!!!! Beautifully informative and well written illustrated book containing wonderful recipes and gorgeous pictures --definitely a keeper for my personal library forever-collection! Also a great coffee table conversation book! Excellent addition for lovers of the world of bread baking. Wish this treasure was available in hardcover edition as softcover did not do it justice and took away from the high quality of it's contents. Looking forward to a hardcover sequel. I definitely want more and more !!! Thanks Rochie !!!!!

    Bought this book for the spouse, who has become the Challah Whisperer thanks to this excellent source for all things Challah. Contains many yummy recipes, lots of background and explanations regarding the steps and meanings for every stage of the baking experience. Photos are fantastic and the book is very well organized and put together. If you ever have to choose only one source concerning Challah, this is the one.
